I grew up watching all the Disney movies. After my daughter got old enough to watch them, we started collecting them from thrift stores and yard sales. We love to watch them together, especially the princess ones :)

Oh man I can't STAND Spongebob and a lot of the cartoons on Cartoon Network (my son is 9 and he only watches at his grandparents' houses and his dad's house, not mine), but my husband says he secretly loves Total Drama Island (which is too old for my son right now anyway).

From when my son was smaller, I loved to watch Sesame Street (though I preferred it's format from when I was a kid), Arthur, Franklin (always made me feel like baking or something), and I did like the Berenstain Bears!

This is a great thread to remind me what to have my new baby watch when I have him/her :)

My daughter who is now 16 years old would watch Barney over and over! I didn't think I would EVER like Barney, but I actually loved it and so did my kids. My 16 year old learned how to sing the ABC's in 3 different languages and a TON of other things. I didn't use Barney as her only teaching tool...but it sure helped!! I have 4 girls. Ages 16, 13, 12 and 6 and they all loved Barney!! Give it a try, you won't be sorry!

PBS SPROUT!!! I like pretty much any of the educational cartoons...they are pretty much all my daughter is allowed to watch with only a couple of exceptions...most other ones on tv now I think are crap...what happened to all the old school cartoons now those were good!!
